Favourite Place for a match: My favourite place to fight is in my hometown, where the fans go m.a.d. 30,000 fans at Aussie Stadium was a real buzz.
Favourite boxers: My favourite fighters are Tommy Hearns, Roberto Duran, Ali and my mate Vic Darchinyan who is also sponsored by Boost Mobile.
Favourite Food: Anything that isn't still kicking. You cook it and serve it up - I WILL eat it!
What would you do if you didn't fight? Well for starters I wouldn't be torturing my body in the ring everyday so that would be a refreshing change at times. But honestly I would not want to be anything other than a professional fighter. My mates would probably say a really dodgy circus clown would be my next best bet.
If you had unlimited money for 24 hours, what would you do? Pick up a whole crew of people down on their luck, round em up in a big bus and go to the ritziest most obnoxious restaurant in town, throw down a wad so big they couldn't refuse us and order up large on the best food, champagne and wine in the joint. I would love to see the ‘regulars' look of dismay as everyone hoed into a mad feast.
Top 3 bands on your ipod: Chemical brothers, Coldplay and the latest Muse CD.
Dream trip: Where? With who? I just had it at Pasta Point, Maldives with my wife and daughter Chloe. Waves 7 hrs every day for 2 weeks straight! Going back next year with the lads so that should be ridiculous fun as well. A three night Vegas stopover would top it off!
If you were a super hero what would your power be? To be able to fly like an eagle
Best country visited: Australia!!!!
I like...: My daughter telling me she loves me out of the blue
I'm afraid off...: Spiders
Sponsors: Boost Mobile, NRW Civil Mining and Construction, Wearside Construction, Pro Choice Safety Equipment, Fixcon
Ambitions: To win the Lightweight World Title, to become a two division world champion, retire with all my marbles and push my boundaries in big surf.
Words of wisdom: Treat people how you want to be treated, one random act of kindness can have a flow on effect, tell your family and mates that you love them, you never know when the last time you will see them will be.
Career Highlights: WBC Super Middle Weight Interim World Champion - December 2003, Olympic Games 2000, Fighting in the biggest fight in Australian history against Anthony Mundine in which I lost on points - rematch slated for early 2008.
